NARRATOR
Once upon a time-
later-
CINDERELLA
I wish
In that same far-off kingdom
More than anything
Lived a young princess,
More than life
The lad Jack,
More than footmen

JACK
I wish
And the Baker with his family

BABY
Waaah!

JACK
No, I miss

CINDERELLA & BAKER
I wish

BABY
Waaah!

JACK
More then anything

CINDERELLA, JACK, BAKER
More than the moon

BAKER'S WIFE
There, there

CINDERELLA
I wish to sponsor a Festival

BABY
Waaah!

BAKER
More then life

JACK
I miss

CINDERELLA
The time has come for a Festival

BABY
Waaah!

BAKER'S WIFE
Shh

BAKER
More than riches

CINDERELLA
And a ball

JACK
I miss my kingdom up in the sky

CINDERELLA & BAKER
More than anything

BAKER'S WIFE
I wish we had more room

BAKER
Another room

NARRATOR
But despite some minor inconveniences,
they were all quite content

CINDERELLA
I never thought I'd wed a Prince

CINDERELLA's PRINCE
I never thought I'd find perfection

BOTH
I never thought I would be so happy!

CINDERELLA
Not an unhappy moment since

JACK & MOTHER
I didn't think we'd be this rich

CINDERELLA'S PRINCE
Not a conceivable objection

BAKER & WIFE
I never thought we'd have a baby

CINDERELLA, PRINCE, JACK, MOTHER
I didn't know I could be so happy!

BAKER & WIFE
I'm so happy!

STEPMOTHER
Happy now,
Happy hence,
Happy ever after-

FLORINDA, LUCINDA, STEPMOTHER
We're so happy you're so happy!
Just as long as you stay happy,
We'll stay happy!

CINDERELLA & PRINCE
Not one row

JACK'S MOTHER
Pots of pence

JACK
With my cow

BAKER & WIFE
Little gurgles

CINDERELLA'S PRINCE
Darling, I must go now

JACK'S MOTHER
We should really sell it

BAKER
Where's he cheesecloth?

ALL (except Baker)
Wishes may bring problems,
Such that you regret them

ALL
Better that, though,
Than to never get them

CINDERELLA
I'm going to be a perfect wife!

JACK
I'm going to be a perfect son!

BAKER'S WIFE & JACK'S MOTHER
I'm going to be a perfect mother!

BAKER
I'm going to be a perfect father!
I'm so happy!

CINDERELLA, JACK, MOTHER, BAKER'S WIFE
I'm going to see that he/she
Is so happy!

ALL
I never though I'd love my life!
I would have settled for another!

CINDERELLA
Then to become a wife

JACK & MOTHER
Then to be ste for life

BAKER & WIFE
Then to beget a child

ALL
That fortune smiled
I'm so hap-!

(A loud rumbling noise is followed by an

enormous crash The Baler's house caves in
He is caught underneath the rubble as
his Wife runs forward with their baby
The Witch enters)

BAKER
Have you done this to our house?

WITCH
Always thinking of yourself! Look at my garden

BAKER
Destroyed!

BAKER's WIFE
Who could do such a thing?

BAKER
Do you think it was a bear?

WITCH
A bear? Bears are sweet
Besides, you ever see a bear with forty-foot feet?

BAKER'S WIFE
Dragon?

WITCH
No scorch marks,
Usually they're linked

BAKER
Manticore?

WITCH
Imaginary

BAKER & WIFE
Griffin?

WITCH
Extinct

BAKER
Giant?

WITCH
Possible
Very, very, possible

NARRATOR
More than possible Their fears would
prove to be well founded

BAKER
Into the woods,
It's always when
You think at last
You're through, and then
Into the woods you go again
To take another journey

BAKER'S WIFE
Into the woods,
The weather's clear,
We've been before,
We've naught to fear
Into the woods, away from here-

JACK
Into the woods to find a giant-!

LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD
Into the woods to Grandmother's house

BAKER
Into the woods,
The path is straight,
No reason then
To hesitate-

BAKER'S WIFE
Into the woods,
It's not to late,
It's just another journey

CINDERELLA
Into the woodsm
But not too long:
The skies are strange,
The winds are strong
Into the woods to see what's wrong

JACK
Into the woods-
To slay the giant!

BAKER'S WIFE
Into the woods-
To shield the child

LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD
To flee the winds

BAKER
To find a future

BAKER'S WIFE
To shield

JACK
To slay

LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD
To flee

BAKER
To find

CINDERELLA
To fix

BAKER'S WIFE
To hide

LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD
To move

JACK
To battle

CINDERELLA
To see what the trouble is

(Rapunzel screams)
